“I also called Abuja to inform my boss, the Commander General of NHFSS, Amb. Joshua Osatimehin. Following his instructions, we had to quickly mobilize NHFSS operatives in the state to move to the area. The rest is history.
“It was a swift operation that paid off quickly, as the woman was rescued within record time and reconnected with her family,” Metchie said.
